Hi Eds, Francisco Ferrero agent of benfica has come out in an interview and said Liverpool spoke to himself and benfica about a transfer last summer. Is there any truth in this? Or is it an agent trying to drum up interest?

{Ed002's Note - A number of clubs have spoken with him apparently including Liverpool. But keep in mind he is not for the first team.}

After listening to the latest Sharkopod it sounds like Liverpool will be packed with midfielders after the summer, with Wijnaldum, Lallana, Henderson, Keita, Grujic, Milner, a Coutinho replacement and potentially Andre Gomes. Surely some of the midfielders we currently have will need to be moved on?

I believe Klopp looking to offload Henderson, Milner and Gruljic.

Relax - you believe, or you just want?

I will bet my house that Klopp doesn't try to offload Henderson.

20 Nov 2017 14:42:23
Putney, I agree, Hendo has to stay .

Agree5 Disagree2

20 Nov 2017 19:28:14
Klopp rates Grujic I can’t see him being sold on just yet.

Agree2 Disagree0

20 Nov 2017 21:20:27
Can coutinho and Milner our, leaves us lallana Keita hendo gini as first team and grujic. For three positions that's 4 plus one - could see another come in even!

Meyer and Lemar to replace Couts, thanks.

No one wants Hendo he has to stay.

Eds media reporting Sturridge wants out in Jan. Any truth in this and if so would we look to replace him. What with Origi already on loan and Ings also being linked with a move.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed001's Note - he wants to play or leave in January yes, loan or permanent deal to give himself a chance of making the World Cup squad. I don't expect him to leave, but if both he and Ings were to leave, then a forward would be sought.}

20 Nov 2017 08:11:28
Again very interesting thanks eds.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - welcome.}

20 Nov 2017 08:25:46
I would honestly think he is at the best place to make the England squad, Klopp seems to be managing him time considering that he seems to be getting less injuries, regaining form and scoring. I fear for him that should he get a team that relies on him week in week out he might not even be fit to be incontention come world cup, could be wrong.

I think Southgate has shown he will pick a youngster over an older guy that isn't playing regular football. Sturridge will struggle for minutes and if he wants to move on we should do right by him.

Agree1 Disagree0

20 Nov 2017 11:23:10
Not surprised and can't blame him, he is criminally over-looked and Klopp has made it clear he'd just simply rather not use him.

Agree0 Disagree15

{Ed001's Note - criminally overlooked? No idea where you get that from. He has not done enough to deserve a place.}

20 Nov 2017 12:09:18
How is Sturridge criminally overlooked? His direct competition is Firmino who happens to be very important to our attacking play. Sturridge offers very little of what Klopp expects from his No.9.

Agree4 Disagree0

20 Nov 2017 12:56:23
Maybe not enough to deserve a starting place, but when Firmino looks dead on his feet he doesn't deserve 20 minutes? Or when our attack has looked completely blunt for 2 games in a row he doesn't even deserve a try? Klopp only turns to Sturridge when he has absolutely no other choice when to me, he's earned regular gametime as a reliable first backup option. To me he's been wasted which has been fine when we've been scoring 3 a game. But we went through a long patch where we struggled badly for goals and for him to barely get a try during that period was criminal and suggests to me that there is nothing sturridge can reasonably do to force his way into Klopps plans - he's just not capable of being the type of forward Klopp wants and there is no situation where Klopp will adapt his game plan to what Sturridge.

Agree2 Disagree3

{Ed001's Note - he has done nothing to earn that position when Solanke has been playing better than him this season.}

20 Nov 2017 13:54:50
Sorry but for all his talent he is not worth the salary he claims from LFC for the availability we get from him. He is a massive hypochondriac when it comes to not playing for the slightest knock.

I would let him go as long as adequate cover is in place, Bobby and Solanke won't be enough.

Cut our loses get the wages back and move on.

Newcastle would be a good move for him.

If Sturridge leaves, can we see Ings as his replacement? Ings is doing pretty well at u23 and is gaining his fitness back.

Agree2 Disagree1

20 Nov 2017 14:45:56
this will sound brutal but i was pleased when i read this as his legs gone and although he seems nice enough guy and seems to have a good footballing brain his body won't hold up to constant games and id also rather see the chances he has got this season so far go to solanke whom i have been impressed by and want to see more off.

Agree2 Disagree0

Sturridge has given us a lot o goals over the years, and at this stage, with the World Cup comimg, he needs playing time, so maybe its best for all that we let him go, at a good price, so he has some chance of making this World Cup .

Agree1 Disagree0

20 Nov 2017 19:51:22
I would think letting him go in January will maximise his value. £25 million if we get lucky and they get desperate.

Agree0 Disagree0

20 Nov 2017 20:43:03
What is happening with the comments, or is it only the select few that get shown?

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - Most of yours get deleted.}

21 Nov 2017 06:56:45
Ed001 what do you think of Solanke so far?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - he has done well but it is early days and we need to see a lot more of him.}
